Got into the hobby earlier in the year and now I have wayyy too many lol. Just wanted to share some of them that I like best.
I have springtails in most of them. Mostly have fittonia, ferns, pilea, Peperomia and some begonias. There’s a bunch of other plants in them too!
Some of newly planted and some are several months old now.

Just saw that more info is needed. I’ll try my best to cover what I can!
Date of creation for these ranges from April of this year to yesterday.
As mentioned there’s a wide variety of plants but mostly pilea, Peperomia, ferns, begonias, mosses, fittonia. I honestly don’t know the exact names of many of them, I just go nuts at the local plants shops 😅
Light source are grow lights.
I use distilled water, and add whenever the terrariums aren’t fogging up much anymore. I have lids on most of them and the vast majority only need water every other month.
Substrate- I experimented a little each time I built a batch of terrariums. Mostly peat based, lots of perlite. Worm castings. Bark. Some have charcoal, sand, coco coir chunks. My recent batch I used fox farms ocean forest potting soil, added perlite and bark.
The size range is pretty big on these. If anyone wants specifics sizes on a certain terrarium just let me know!
The third one is so pretty. You should do that professionally
They are all very pretty. The ones I like the most are the first and the third. I think the same, you could do this professionally.
What is the plant in the back left in picture 6?
I think 2 and 4 are my favorites! I love the design and setup.
You are doing some beautiful work!
So pretty and fun!
